Food & Wine

Dining in the region is a foodies' delight! You will discover cafes, restaurants and hotels offering fine local produce and set in a range of distinctive locations.

Dine along a bustling sidewalk, in a charming café, or a gracious historic building - this is a truly vibrant and flavoursome food destination!

Not surprisingly, there are many regional events that showcase our gourmet strengths. Food and wine festivals occur in Castlemaine, Maldon, Taradale, Elphinstone and Harcourt - so be sure to check our Events Calendar and plan ahead.

Head out on a Taste of Gold Food and Wine trail to discover hidden treasures off the beaten track. Each of the trails feature a great variety of natural foods, wines, beverages, tourist attractions and country style accommodation. Pick up a trail brochure from one of the Visitor Information Centres to begin your journey.

Use the 'Cafes & Restaurants' 'Local Produce' and 'Wineries & Cideries' tabs for further information on where to get your foodie fix!
